The Role
As our Business Analyst, you’ll turn operational data into clear, meaningful insight that supports better decisions across our waste management operations.
You’ll extract and combine data from internal systems, analyse business performance and present your findings in a way that is easy for non-technical stakeholders to understand. Working closely with operational teams and managers, you’ll help identify trends, highlight opportunities for improvement and provide evidence-based answers to key business questions.
This is a hands-on, data-focused role for someone who enjoys working with numbers and can connect analysis to real operational and commercial outcomes. Joining Panda at an important stage of growth, you’ll help us move from data to insight—and from insight to action.
What You’ll Be Doing
As Business Analyst, you’ll be responsible for:
- Extracting, consolidating and analysing data from internal business systems
- Working with large operational datasets to identify trends, patterns and performance issues
- Translating complex information into clear and concise reports for non-technical stakeholders
- Working with managers and operational teams to understand their reporting and information needs
- Providing analysis to support operational, financial and strategic decision-making
- Combining information from different systems to create a complete view of business performance
- Responding to ad hoc requests and providing clear, evidence-based answers to business questions
- Highlighting areas where performance, efficiency or service delivery could be improved
- Contributing to the continued development of reporting and analytical capabilities across the department
